Reliable 10Gbps Networking

Establish a fast and stable 10 Gigabit Ethernet connection with this 10ft Shielded CAT6a cable. Perfect for connecting switches, NAS units, and SFP modules, it ensures data integrity for high-bandwidth applications.

Superior Shielding and Conductivity

Constructed with 27AWG pure bare copper wire and S/FTP shielding, each twisted pair is individually shielded with aluminum-mylar foil and tinned copper braid. This design minimizes signal loss and reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI), delivering consistent high performance.

Durable, Safe Construction

The cable features snagless 50-microinch gold-plated RJ45 connectors to prevent damage during installation and maintain a secure connection. The flexible Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket reduces toxic fumes and smoke in case of fire, making it safe for various environments including industrial and residential spaces.

Power over Ethernet Plus Plus (PoE++) Support

Designed to support up to 100 watts of power via PoE++, this cable can power devices like PoE switches, access points, and IP cameras, enabling both data and power transmission over a single cable.

Compatibility and Quality Assurance

Backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5/5e standards, it integrates smoothly into existing networks. Each cable is individually tested with industry-standard equipment and carries ETL verification for guaranteed Cat6a performance.
